Stirling Terrace is Toodyay's main street and the place to see the town's heritage fabric in one walk. Old hotels, shopfronts, civic buildings, and verandahs line the street, giving it a stronger period feel than many Wheatbelt towns.
It is not a monument in the usual sense; it is a streetscape. Walk it slowly between the mill, the visitor centre, and the river side of town, and the town's nineteenth-century shape becomes clear.
